Childish Gambino “This Is America” Decoded

Childish Gambino has taken socially conscious to a whole new level with “This is America.”

While rappers like XXXTentacion, 6ix9ine, Migos, Moneybagg Yo, YFN Lucci, 21 Savage, Lil Pump, Playboi Carti, Cardi B, Nicki Minaj, Post Malone, Trippie Redd talk about NOTHING except being Gucci, being a boss, groupies, and more nonsense. Hip-hop culture continues to suffer the fate of consumerism, materialism, social status by what you own, wear, who you know and drug culture.

Thankfully we have rappers like Kendrick Lamar, J Cole and Childish Gambino to pick up where veteran rappers like Common, KRS One, Public Enemy, and others have left off. The new gen of hip hop NEEDS more rappers like K-Dot, Cole, and Gambino. Read on to get the tea on Childish Gambino “This Is America” decoded…

CelebNMusic247.com are HUGE fans of hip hop but we have watched the decline of hip hop suffer as music lovers are cohorsed to make trash rap chart topping hits.

In the video below you can see a shirtless Gambino dancing like a Jim Crow caricature. His body movements are taken from Crows origins and insulting depiction of Black America. As he moves in a Crow caricuature way he comes to his first victim by shooting him in the head. The gives a chilling look at gun violence in America.

How black youth has become jaded to the trauma of gun violence:

NOTE: Gambino gives extra care to the gun while having the prints wiped off. The victim he murders is just another body and headline people will soon forget in the video. After each killing in the video, Glover points out how the black youth has become jaded to the trauma of gun violence and how the black community has been FORCED to cope.

Gambino also shows how America quickly forgets while the families ruined are swept under the carpet by todays over saturated self-absorbed millennial culture.

Childish also points out bystanders filming with cellphones to post on social media for followers, NOT to help.

He ends the video dancing like Michael Jackson on the roof of the car, symbolizing the luxury cars of yester year a safer time in America which is lost today. It’s America’s family falues and lessons lost in todays culture only focused on getting that “bag” being “Gucci” without remorse.
